I don't know what's wrong, but it's clearly a failure to actually start
the VM, and it's most likely either:
1. A binary such as qemu-dm is missing. 
2. Some process dies during the startup. 

The actual error message is that the system is trying to clean up
something by killing the processes involved, but it failes because some
process is not there - I'm not sure if that's really what it should be
doing, but that's a slightly different matter. 

A dump of the last several lines in /var/log/xen/xend-debug.log may help
identify which process it is.
